Doodle and Dance with Pictaps
Here’s a brilliant time-waster. It’s called Pictaps, simply pop along to the website, wait for it to load and click the Paint button. You can now use the simple drawing tools to design a character, based on the outline template; add colours and features. When you are happy with it click the OK button, give it a name and your character is transported into a 3D landscape, and starts dancing, along with countless copies and clones of itself.
It’s mesmerising, and highly addictive and when you get a moment have a look at some of the characters created by other visitors to the site. You can share your efforts with others with a link address, or download it to your blog or website, you can see the results of my pathetic drawing skills, called ‘Nukeman’ here, and yes, the resemblance is uncanny…
